From: Chris Packham <chris.packham@alliedtelesis.co.nz> When the i40e runs out of space for RX filters the driver switches to promiscuous mode and warns that it has done so. In scenarios with a large number of these filters this can generate a lot of warnings. For example: $ dmesg -c > /dev/null $ ip link add dev br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1 vlan_default_pvid 1 $ ip link set dev eth7 master br0 $ bridge vlan add vid 1 dev eth7 pvid untagged self $ bridge vlan add vid 2-4094 dev eth7 tagged $ dmesg [ 25.601705] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF [ 25.601833] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF [ 25.601961] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF [ 25.602088] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF [ 25.602216] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF [ 25.602344] i40e 0000:01:00.1: Error LIBIE_AQ_RC_ENOSPC, forcing overflow promiscuous on PF ... Use test_and_set_bit() so that the warning is only issued when the driver enables promiscuous mode and not on the addition of subsequent RX filters.
